DUDE. Those first 4 picks are ****ing awesome.

And totally unrealistic!

first of all, it's game. I wouldn't put any real stock in it.

Second-according to multiple mocks, yeah, those first four picks are entirely possible.

Third-nobody, not the mocks, not Mel Kiper Jr., or anyone else has any idea how the board will actually fall in April.

But in the meantime, this little simulation is pretty fun.

Oh for sure.
That talent you got with those first four picks are largely within the first 50 picks on most Big Boards though. What a haul that would be. If there is a run on offensive players early, some really great defensive talent would fall, but I still think defense dominates this draft class.

yeah. well, if you're a team that already has an offense that's kick-ass then sure. If you don't, and you're looking at The Chiefs, and The Rams, and The Saints...?

and most of the lowly teams have shit offensively. What would you do? I'd be drafting Qb's until I got one, and WR's, and offensive linemen.

So...we'll see. but nobody wants to pay to see a team that can't score.

NFL teams are stubborn and slow to change. While emulation will certainly happen, it won't happen all at once.

I mean look at Elway in Denver. He thinks he can beat the Chiefs with defense, a running game, and Joe freaking Flacco.

oh he's gonna be drafting a QB, I'm pretty sure of it. He's looking at Flacco as his Alex Smith. He's probably looking at Lock as his Mahomes.

It's a copycat league. This is the new blueprint.

But you have to actually have the pieces in place; you can't just run the play.

And when he drafts a CB or another pass rusher?
